of tho present agitation In favor of

The Pssnto—sn Appreciation
(Lakeland News.)
The peach baa long been regarded
as a synonym for that which Is beau
tiful—but there are peaches and
peaches. When a South Florida awaln
wishes to emphasise the superlative
charms of his loved one, he deosn't
merely designate her as n peach—he
calls her a peento!
Like many other of earth's good
things, the peento Is largely depend
ent upon environment for It* perfect
development. Hence the peento of
Oeorgla, or even North Florida, Is
no more to be compared with the Polk
County peento than n Zulu-damsel
with an American beauty. For the
purposes of this article, therefore, be
It understood that n Polk county
peento Is under Uacgaalon.
Unique In shape—resembling some
of the candidates la the late primary
to the eatent of being decidedly Bat
oned at the pole*—the peento la a
poem that we all rejoice to scan. In
its coloring It has caught the reflex
of many glorious sunsets, of many
roay dawns; untl. In Its ripened per
fection It has blended the warm tints
of summer skies Into n rich but deli
cate conception that Is at once the
artlat'a delight and despair. Within
this matchless covering Is Imprisoned
the sunshine of perfect days,
ilewa of starry nights, the honeyed
breath of perfume-laden airs—com
bined In nn exquisite an 1 delicious
triumph of nature's niche.--/ for the
delectation of man!
Tender aa young love’s first kiss,
Juicy as an undralned section of the
glades, . with a flavor that
resol ves Itself Into a thing
of beauty and a Joy to the
last morsel that dings to the tiny
atone—wo hall thee, O Peento! the
perfect- peach—the very queen of
pcachea! '
BONO ELECTION.
The continued progress of Way-
cross demands the success of the bond
election next 8aturd.y. Tho necessi
ty tot this bond Issue la generally un-
Jerstood and If -Misted It will bo
charged to n spirit of old fogylsm, and
Waycraoa must suffer the consequen
ces. Everybody should favor and will
bo benefltttd by providing additional
school facilities, paying the streets
and extending the water mains and
sowerage system. And these and
these clone ora the purposes to which
tho proceeds front the sale of bond*
are to be applied. Bat yon say wo

Besides there ore good rea

should be pnaood on' separate and.
apart from any other. If you com

votes opposed to each would 'defeat
the whole. Moreover It Is possible
the Waycross Electric light and Pow
er Company would be willing to sell
the city Its light plant, Including on
ly aurh up-to-date machinery and Its
lines as the city might want, at n fair
valuation and go out of the electric
lighting business. Anyhow, we
should all turn out Saturday and vote
for bonds. PROGRESS.
